Jean and Isabel Godin des Odonais were an 18th century couple who became separated in South America by colonial politics, and who were eventually reunited over 20 years later. The travel of Isabel Godin, from Peru to the mouth of the Amazon River, is without equal in the history of South America. Her misadventure and eventual reunion with her husband is an oft repeated story that has given rise to popular misconceptions of the dangers of the tropical rain forest.

  • Jean and Isabel Godin des Odonais were an 18th century couple who became separated in South America by colonial politics, and who were eventually reunited over 20 years later. The travel of Isabel Godin, from Peru to the mouth of the Amazon River, is without equal in the history of South America. Her misadventure and eventual reunion with her husband is an oft repeated story that has given rise to popular misconceptions of the dangers of the tropical rain forest. In 1749 Jean left their home in Riobamba, Ecuador, Spanish South America to visit French Guiana, but as a French citizen was refused permission by the Spanish and Portuguese authorities to return for his family. Isabel became famous for being the only survivor of a 42-person 3000-mile expedition through the Amazon Basin to meet up with her husband. They were reunited in 1770 and later returned to France together.
  • Jean Godin des Odonais (Odonais war der Geburtsname seiner Mutter) (* 1712 in St. Amand; † 1792 ebenda) war ein französischer Naturforscher und Kartograf. Er nahm ab dem Jahre 1735 an der Expedition der französischen Akademie der Wissenschaften in das Vizekönigreich Peru zur Messung der Figur der Erde teil. Er heiratete 1741 Isabel Gramesón in Quito und verließ 1749 Riobamba, um über Französisch-Guayana nach Frankreich zurückzukehren. Isabel folgte ihm viele Jahre später und traf ihn nach abenteuerlicher Reise durch das Amazonas-Gebiet nach mehr als zwanzig Jahren wieder. Gemeinsam reisten sie nach Frankreich, wo sie ihren Lebensabend verbrachten.
